I Briefing on the Outputs of the IASC Task Force on Safe Access to Firewood and Alternative Energy in Humanitarian Settings (Task Force SAFE)
will provide an overview of what has been accomplished to date in the IASC Task Force On Safe Access to Firewood and Alternative Energy in Humanitarian Settings (IASC SAFE Task Force), as well as next steps. The task force was established in May 2007 and is co-chaired by the Women’s Commission, WFP, and UNHCR. Its key goal is to create practical tools for humanitarians - particularly field-based practitioners - to assist them in developing a coordinated, multi-sectoral fuel strategy. Recognizing the cross-cutting nature of the issue, the task force works in eight issue areas: camp coordination and camp management; emergency shelter; environment; food and nutrition; health; information, education and communication; livelihoods, development and food security; and protection.
